About Us

Changing the way classical online concerts happen.

Classical music concerts don’t have to be background music. Especially online concerts. We believe online concerts can be just as stimulating and enjoyable as the real deal.

If you’ve never been to an online classical music concert, you might be intimidated by the thought of sitting in front of a computer for an hour. Or you might think it’s a waste of time.

It doesn’t have to be that way.

Quest Concerts is here to bring a memorable evening for you, you and a date, you and your family, or you and your friends!

Concerts are full-length (approximately 1.5 hours) and involve not only incredible performers, but a storyline and activities to do during the concert.

These “escape-room-style” concerts take you on a journey, whether it’s Night At The Museum or Time Travel or Princess Rescue, where you’ll be given clues to solve, puzzles to figure out, and some background knowledge of the pieces performed.

You’ll be working to escape from the virtual rooms in 15 minute segments, with different performers and works played in every room.

Performances are held over Zoom with clues on the website.

Join us for an exceptional evening, grab a glass of wine (or sparkling grape juice) and book your tickets now!

Sincerely,

Alyssa Tong, Founder & Executive Director

What makes Quest Concerts special?

Enjoy an approachable classical concert

Part of our mission is to make classical music accessible to everyone! And it starts in the virtual concert hall. Classical music can seem boring or even hoity-toity but this concert makes your listening experience fun, engaging, and understandable. You’ll close your computer with a deeper appreciation of the music!

Interactive and engaged listening

By having a live performance that shares information about the piece in the clues, you’ll be actively engaged in the music. No more dozing off or wondering when it’s going to end. In fact, some of the clues will tell you exactly what to listen for in the music!

We’re the FIRST escape room concert!

There are no classical music escape rooms out there – be one of the first to enter ours, if you dare! Some clues may be harder than others, but you are sure to be challenged with riddles, puzzles, and more!

Such a fun experience, getting to see incredible performances live on Zoom and also solving clues! The escape room portion made my brain work in the best way possible. Hope to come to another concert!

What to Expect

Wondering what the concert will be like?

Format

Each concert will feature 3 performances with 3 separate artists, usually performing a full work. Sometimes, they will perform several shorter works or selections from a long work. Each segment will last 12-15 minutes.

Before each segment...

You will see a short video to give a bit of background on your quest and help orient you to the concert format. Additionally, you may meet some composers or friends of composers, who will give an introduction to the piece.

You’ll also receive a Quest Guide that will help you listen for specific things in the music that may help you solve clues.

After each performance...

You will be directed into a Zoom breakout room with up to 9 other participants. Each room will have a private gamemaster to help guide you, who will also release the quest portion of the performance. You’ll need a password to get into each webpage with the clues, which will be given to you by your gamemaster.

The clues

You’ll receive the link to a webpage with clues and questions to answer. It’s your job to connect the dots and figure out the questions! Clues will range from crossword puzzles, to maps, to dates, to rebuses, and more. Depending on the difficulty level of the room, clues may be hidden well or relatively easy. You will not ever need to Google an answer.

15 minutes is allotted for the clue portion.

If you finish early...

Head back to the main room, where the performer will be chatting about their experience performing the piece and working on it. The performer will be more than happy to answer any questions you have about music, themselves, or the piece.

We also have a leaderboard for those that finish clues early.

From the performer...

The performer will play 12-15 minutes of music. Programs will be posted in the Zoom chat with their biography information as well as the piece selections they are performing.

At the end...

We hope you will have completed all the clues and escaped! There will be a short conclusion and performers will be happy to answer any questions you have. Don’t be a stranger and come to another concert!
